The first time I ever got these flowers was a few years ago at work for an anniversary flower arrangement. At the time I did not know the name of them and called them elf ears. I also didn't know you could easily get the seeds and plant them. I am excited to try my hand at growing Bells of Ireland.

Unusual. Pretty. Can still grow with little care. Even in dry, terrible soil these things germinated and grew...just tiny! These beautiful flowers are so prolific they bloomed in spring and fall! Easy to collect seed, just watch out for the thorns on the back of the flowers after blooming. I cannot wait to grow them in fertile soil this year! Definitely a 'keeper'.

We have dry sandy soil and not many flowers thrive there. But these Bells came up with very little fuss; I seeded them in the fall and forgot about them and then was very surprised to see them this spring.

These were a wonderful addition to our flower garden, very easy to grow from seed. We have numerous seedling coming up in the garden from the flowers reseeding. The flowers seem to last a very long time, much longer than other flowers. My 5 yr old son was especially fond of these since they are a boy color! I am glad to have found this great flower.
